Nordstrom Anniversary Sale | What I Already Own and Love

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Review, Tried & True Favorites/Must-Buys/Staples on a Budget

So I wanted to share my tried-and-true favorites for those of you who might be new to the sale and are working with a tight budget, because I totally GET IT. No hype, just help. Here are a few of the items I already own and love from the sale, plus links to the exact (or very similar items) being offered in this year's sale.
